Pleasure Ridge Park quarterback Spencer Sumpter, who graduated this spring, will be a preferred walk-on on the Western Kentucky University football team this season and will report to Bowling Green in a week.

Sumpter signed with Lindsey Wilson College in February but was invited by WKU assistant Jeff Brohm soon after that to walk on with the Hilltoppers.
